The macrophages release cytokines interleukin-1 and 6 as well as necrosis factor-alpha in response to the release of inflammatory chemical after tissue injury. These cytokines produce local vascular effects, increasing the expression of adhesion molecules and promoting vascular permeability. They then simulate the release of corticotrophin releasing hormone at the hypothalamus, resulting in the release of adrenocorticotrophic hormone from the anterior pituirary. These adrenocorticotropic hormones act at the adrenal cortex to cause cortisol release. The cytokines then simulate the production of acute phase proteins in the liver through direct action and the release of cortisol.

Local manifestations of inflammation are result of the vascular changes associated with the inflammatory process, including vasodilation and increased capillary permeability. the symptoms include redness, heat, swelling, and pain. While, the principal systemic effects of inflammation are fever and increases in levels of circulating leukocytes (leukocytosis) and plasma proteins (acute-phase reactants).

Another example of a local effect is a muscle sprain, while a systemic effect could be nausea from a side effect of medication affecting the digestive system.

What are examples of systemic effects?
Systemic effect refers to an adverse health effect that takes place at a location distant from the body's initial point of contact and presupposes absorption has taken place. Examples: arsenic effects to the blood, nervous system, liver, kidneys and skin; benzene effects to the bone marrow.Substances with systemic effects often have "target organs" in which they accumulate and exert their toxic effect. Some substances that cause systemic effects are cumulative poisons. These substances tend to build up in the body as a result of numerous chronic exposures. The effects are not seen until a critical body burden is reached. Example: heavy metals such as lead.
